How to repair, install , fix, change or replace your rear struts with their loaded struts. This video is applicable 98 Toyota Camry
Here we have our old strut that we removed from our Camry and our new part from 1AAuto.com.
As you can see, these parts are exactly the same with the same mounting locations for the sway bar link, the ABS sensor, and the flexible brake hose. They have the same size spring as well as the same size strut tube here. These parts are directional. You can see that these are the right side. The left would be a mirror image of what we see here.
These new quick struts are already assembled with a new spring and a new strut mount, meaning that it's going to eliminate any strut related noises that we're hearing and restore our vehicle to its factory ride height and original ride quality. These parts are simpler to install and eliminate the headache and hassle as well as the need for special tools like the old struts did where they would be replaced as a single piece as opposed to an entire assembly. If your struts are making noise, bouncing, aren't sitting at the proper ride height, or are causing you alignment issues, these new parts from 1A Auto are going to go in direct fit, just like your original equipment, and fix you up right.
